Colloquium: Incompatible measurements in quantum information science

O Gühne, E Haapasalo, T Kraft, JP Pellonpää… - Reviews of Modern …, 2023 - APS
Some measurements in quantum mechanics disturb each other. This has puzzled physicists
since the formulation of the theory, but only in recent decades has the incompatibility of …

Properties and Applications of the Kirkwood-Dirac Distribution

DRM Arvidsson-Shukur, WF Braasch Jr… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
The most famous quasi-probability distribution, the Wigner function, has played a pivotal role
in the development of a continuous-variable quantum theory that has clear analogues of …

Complete incompatibility, support uncertainty, and Kirkwood-Dirac nonclassicality

S De Bièvre - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
For quantum systems with a finite dimensional Hilbert space of states, we show that the
complete incompatibility of two observables—a notion we introduce—is equivalent to the …

Thermodynamic approach to quantifying incompatible instruments

CY Hsieh, SL Chen - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
We consider a thermodynamic framework to quantify instrument incompatibility via a
resource theory subject to thermodynamic constraints. We use the minimal thermalization …

Genuine high-dimensional quantum steering

S Designolle, V Srivastav, R Uola, NH Valencia… - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
High-dimensional quantum entanglement can give rise to stronger forms of nonlocal
correlations compared to qubit systems, offering significant advantages for quantum …

Conditions tighter than noncommutation needed for nonclassicality

DRM Arvidsson-Shukur, JC Drori… - Journal of Physics A …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
Kirkwood discovered in 1933, and Dirac discovered in 1945, a representation of quantum
states that has undergone a renaissance recently. The Kirkwood–Dirac (KD) distribution has …

What does your smile mean? jointly detecting multi-modal sarcasm and sentiment using quantum probability

Y Liu, Y Zhang, Q Li, B Wang… - Findings of the Association …, 2021 - aclanthology.org
Sarcasm and sentiment embody intrinsic uncertainty of human cognition, making joint
detection of multi-modal sarcasm and sentiment a challenging task. In view of the …

Mutually unbiased bases and symmetric informationally complete measurements in Bell experiments

A Tavakoli, M Farkas, D Rosset, JD Bancal… - Science …, 2021 - science.org
Mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) and symmetric informationally complete projectors (SICs)
are crucial to many conceptual and practical aspects of quantum theory. Here, we develop …

Complete resource theory of quantum incompatibility as quantum programmability

F Buscemi, E Chitambar, W Zhou - Physical review letters, 2020 - APS
Measurement incompatibility describes two or more quantum measurements whose
expected joint outcome on a given system cannot be defined. This purely nonclassical …

All quantum resources provide an advantage in exclusion tasks

R Uola, T Bullock, T Kraft, JP Pellonpää, N Brunner - Physical review letters, 2020 - APS
A key ingredient in quantum resource theories is a notion of measure. Such as a measure
should have a number of fundamental properties, and desirably also a clear operational …
